if you have a corporate xp disk you usually can't boot straight off of the cd-rom. however you can make setup disks. regular non corporate disks can be booted straight from cd-rom.
first link on google search "windows xp setup disks"

oh crap it turned out one of the IDE controller ports on the board is bad. That's why even the floppy didn't work because it can't find the CD drive to start installing windowz.. i should've double checked in the BIOS first..
surprised to find out that it's an Abit BE6!!:eek: Those boards used to kick.... ass.
